LUMUNOS… The Light Unto My Path
Lumunos is the name of our prayer room, a quiet space for individual or small group prayer, meditation, and reflection. It is located on the 2nd floor of the Christian Education wing of the church. The theme of light reminds us that in Christ, we see the light of our lives, the truth, the hope, and the connections. Light guides our way both inwardly and out into the world.
DEVOTIONAL LIBRARY
In the Lumunos room is a selection of devotional literature. You are welcome to borrow these books or to use them while you are in there. Please respect the books and return them in a timely fashion.
SPIRITUALITY RETREATS
Each year the Spiritual Life Ministry offers retreats for rest and renewal of body and soul. Retreat themes have included: Creativity, Hope, Balance, Journeys, and God’s Good Earth.
